New York Mets closer Edwin Díaz is firing back at Oakland Athletics reliever Austin Adams, saying he "crossed the line" for mocking the team’s celebration based around teammate José Iglesias’s hit song, "OMG." 

The Mets have been doing the "OMG" celebration since Iglesias’s song released in June — he even performed it at Citi Field with thousands of fans in the stands.

New York had previously designated him for assignment on Feb. 6, which took him off the 40-man roster as the team clearly didn’t think he’d be making it to the big leagues with them this season.

He returned to face the Mets on Tuesday night, and Adams was able to escape a jam in the Athletics’ 9-4 win on the road after striking out Francisco Alvarez. 

As Alvarez waved at Adams’ breaking pitch, the right-hander mimicked the "OMG" celebration before screaming some expletives into the air. The SNY broadcast caught the moment as Adams walked off the mound.
